The letter from Bill and Hillary Clinton to James Comer explaining their refusal to testify in his Epstein investigation is really remarkable, not like any letter of this genre I've seen. It's signed by them, not a lawyer, and the arguments are not legal ones. Reprinted from their X account:

Says the president of the only country to invoke Article 5
Trump is back with a fiery NATO rant, claiming he pushed allies to 5% GDP defense spending and saved Ukraine from total Russian occupation. He says he ended eight wars, was snubbed for the Nobel Peace Prize by Norway, and insists NATO wouldn’t defend the U.S., but he’d defend them anyway.
Bravado.
Bravado.

This is the guy who thinks he can run Venezuela 2,050 miles away from Caracas without a single boot on the ground and with Maduro's underlings still in power. Can anyone explain how that works, and why no one is asking this question? He can't do it through coercion alone

Narrator: what the flailing human goose turd wasn't telling the people was, they were earning the same, but it was buying them less
Lutnick: "Donald Trump's economy grew 4.3%. That means that Americans overall, all of us, are going to earn 4.3% more money. We're making a raise, it's a simple way to do it."

Look….. I know I’m an adult so it’s different…… but I feel like this year’s Christmas is the least Christmas-y I’ve ever experienced.
Personally, because of all of the horror we’ve had this year. But also commercially, I feel like even companies are phoning it in or not even acknowledging it.

Calling the press “fake news” is harmful. Calling them “seditious, perhaps even treasonous” for publishing reporting is something else entirely. Treason is a capital crime. Suggesting journalists should face it for exercising their First Amendment rights and doing their jobs is dangerous.

I don't care about Marco Rubio nixing calibri as "DEI" or whatever. I do care about the State Department and White House making the Great Replacement Theory into our national security posture and promising to prop up neo nazis in Europe to perpetuate this

If you wonder whether these comparisons of Trump to Nazis go too far, remember that Hitler was present in the German political scene long before he created the first death camp
And at that point, he was calling Jews “vermin”
Which-of course-is not dissimilar from Trump calling Somalis “garbage”
